He does not have any patterns, and I need Turtle Scale Gloves pattern because it wasn't available in AH.

This guy is the Alliance's questgiver for the Wild Leather chain. Insane quantities of materials for this one. If you want to do all of them you will need

194 Thick Leather
112 Turtle Scales
12 Heavy Silken thread
21 Silken Thread
7 Wildvine

...assuming I've done the maths correctly, which is never a certain thing. (Actually I checked the math the second time I did it and the numbers are now correct. The only thing I was missing was that little ten-leather bribe that you give him to start the process.)

Now, as to where to find the materials. Hie thee to Gadgetzan and head east. You'll get to Wavestrider Beach where there are turtles a-plenty: the Steeljaws. They skin into Thick Leather and Turtle Scales, with the occasional Heavy Leather, and at the level you'll be doing the quests are probably the most reliable source for both. You have the advantage of Steamwheedle Port being right there in case you need to sell off a bunch of vendor trash. Oh! And I ought to mention that I got two blue drops while killing turtles.

As for Wildvine, sometimes you get one when your Herbalist harvests a Purple Lotus. But that's not really reliable. Instead, go to Stranglethorn Vale and whack great quantities of the Skullsplitter Trolls in the ruins ENE of the Arena (Ziata'Jal et. al.) I had my 60th level Warrior slaughter entire camps worth of them and wound up with 17 Wildvine after a few hours work.

Of course you could always hit the overpriced and understocked Auction House, too, but what fun is that?

An interesting little bug is that after you get the recipes you also can ask Pratt McGrubben to teach you the recipes. You can ask him even if you're technically not of a level to learn the recipes from the scrolls! Unfortunately the recipes themselves are soulbound, so no selling them on the AH. The only one that this doesn't work with is the Wild Leather Cloak, which you get from Telonis in Darnassus as your ultimate reward.

When you get off the boat at Feathermoon Stronghold, go through the inn and out Western Exit to get the Flight Path. Then turn NorthWest and go about 20 paces. He is in a pavilion right beside where you came out of the inn.

If you have trouble with compass directions you can turn back around to face the inn and then look a little to the left.

The living shoulders are on a 30min spawn timer.
